Dribble Drills Again

Anyway, about dribble drills. Really, you could work on dribbling for an entire 2 hour practice. And that would not be a bad thing. Let me put it this way, the younger your team is the more you need to practice dribbling. Junk the offensive sets, scrap the entries, just dribble. Dribble all day if you can.

Dribbling is the first and best skill you can teach your guys. Look at any team playing at a high level and you will find that every guy out there can put it on the floor. It is that critical to your player's success and your team's success.

Now I get that most of you won't use your entire practice and just dribble. But, really, if you want to make your team better faster, you might consider it.

So you want to know who is giving you all this advice? Okay, your advisor is an ex-college and professional coach. Fired a bunch, hired a lot more, created programs, and stood at the helm of teams that played their hearts out every game. Career record: 392 wins and 135 losses. Recruited players from virtually every state, and several countries including, Poland, Germany, England, Canada, and Brazil. Does American Samoa count as another country? Probably not. Retired now so that I can coach my own kids.
